Ball-by-Ball Commentary


Match State: Day 1 start scheduled for 11.00 AEDT (10.00 AEST, 00.00 GMT)

       Welcome to the final round of the Pura Cup for a match that sees
        New South Wales host Queensland
       A most crucial match as far as the home side is concerned; an
        outright win would put New South Wales into the final, anything
        less will have them relying on another result in order to qualify
       Queensland have less to play for, they are already confirmed hosts
        of the final, with an unassailable 10 point lead over the rest of
        the competition
       A nice clear sunny day here at the Sydney Cricket Ground
       The pitch looks a belter, one the batsmen should thrive upon, one
        would imagine the captain winning the toss will have little
        difficulty making up his mind
       New South Wales captain Steve Waugh has won the toss, and
        unsurprisingly has elected to bat first
       Joe Dawes has been made 12th man for Queensland, he apparently has
        a bad back
       New South Wales ommission from their original twelve was also
        forced - Nathan Bracken getting a world cup call-up, Shaun
        Bradstreet called into the squad to act as 12th man

Match State: Stumps - Day 1

       Welcome to the second day of this fascinating Pura Cup match
        between New South Wales and Queensland
       We begin day two with the match already half over innings wise

        and mounting a defendable target
       This match holds a lot more importance for the home side, New South
        Wales will most likely need an outright win in order to qualify
        for the final, Queensland on the other hand will be hosting the
        final irrespective of the final round's results

        look mostly fine at the moment, with only a bit of cloud overhead

        line up, which they were unable to do yesterday

        to get the outright win they need to make the final
